Help me move
Hey all,
I recently moved from Seoul, South Korea back to a small town in canada of about 5000 people. I am going insane, I need to move. I came back to house sit for my parents while they were in Europe, they are back now and I need to leave. Here is what I am looking for in a place to live: 1. Nice whether - if I have to live through another Canadian winter I will kill myself. 2. By the beach - I love nothing more than relaxing by a beautiful beach. 3. Potential to get a decent job - I have a university degree in Molecular biology. 4. Fairly large city - I love big cities with lots to do. 5. Good internet connection for poker. 6. Decent rent for a studio/1bd room place (<$1000 mnth preferably). 7. I'd rather not need a car, I've never liked the hastles that come along with a car. I make enough playing poker to survive (3-4 k/mnth) but wouldn't mind getting a decent job, I'm going nuts playing poker. I have been looking into florida and Cali a great deal. I have never been to either but have heard great things and seem to have everything I'm looking for (mostly Miami and L.A. and San Diego), but I would move anywhere (I'm going to miami next week to check it out). So, opinions??? I was also wondering do I need a visa or anything to live full time in the states, or is it just to work??? How difficult is it to get a job in the states being from Canada? Do employeers feel it's a hastle going through visa stuff hiring a Canadian? I feel like it would just be easier for them to hire an American. Thanks for all opinions. Malone |

I've only been here a few months, but I like Miami so far. With that said, given the choice, I'd rather be on the Gulf Coast than Miami.

Sorry... you're good up until #6 in San Diego (and SoCal in general). Once you hit numbers 6 and 7, though, you're [censored]. Also, about the good internet connection... what the hell do you think this is, Canada? We have the internet everywhere here. |
